UK prime minister wants backdoors into messaging apps or he’ll ban them
David Cameron, the British Prime minister, is one-upping his Western allies when it comes to anti-encryption propaganda. Ahead of national elections in May, Cameron said that if re-elected, he would seek to ban encrypted online messaging apps unless the UK government is given backdoors.
“Are we going to allow a means of communications which it simply isn’t possible to read?” Cameronsaid Monday while campaigning, in reference to apps such as WhatsApp, Snapchat, and other encrypted services. “My answer to that question is: ‘No, we must not.’”
He said the Paris attacks, including the one last week on satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo, underscored the need for greater access.
“The attacks in Paris demonstrated the scale of the threat that we face and the need to have robust powers through our intelligence and security agencies in order to keep our people safe,” Cameron said.
